Dear All,

Kindly help me converting a batch file with following commands into shell script

Batch file
start /B ant launch-hub
start /B ant -Denvironment="*firefox" -Dport=5000 launch-remote-control
start /B ant -Denvironment="*firefox" -Dport=5001 launch-remote-control

I would like to have the same functionality with shell commands

Well, which commands are present on Linux?? Firefox obviously is, and ant CAN be, if you install it. You don't say anything about your version/disro of Linux, or what you've done/tried so far, though.

So install ant, if you haven't already, and do some research into the proper command-line options to type in. Once you figure them out, put them in a file.
